FAQ: Are dogs allowed?
Yes, Merley House is a dog friendly holiday park and we welcome up to 2 dogs per holiday home or lodge. Many of our existing owners have dogs, so there’s an excellent community of dog owners on-park should you fancy some company during your walks.
Dogs must be kept on lead at all times when walking around the park. We have a fully enclosed dog walking field next to the park’s entrance for exercising your dog off lead and the excellent Castleman Trailway is accessible from the park. There is an independent dog grooming salon adjacent to the park. Wimborne has a number of excellent vets.
